Physics: The Particle at the End of the Universe by Sean Carroll

​⚛️ Have you ever looked into the night sky and wondered what it's all made of and where the universe is heading? The story of the Higgs boson and its 2012 discovery at the Large Hadron Collider are an essential piece of this puzzle. Come learn about modern research in high energy particle physics, along with the broader implications of federally funded basic research and global scientific collaboration.
